Diplomatic Pressure: The U.S. had called for Rivera’s release after Nicaragua released hospital photos showing him critically ill, while the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights condemned his detention and urged accountability. Sports & Travel: South Africa’s World Cup preparations hit a snag as visa problems delayed the Bafana Bafana squad’s departure to Mexico, with Sports Minister Gayton McKenzie calling it an “embarrassing” administrative failure.
